272-279 (110-117 hex). . . . . . . . . . . . . Real Address
Breaking-Event Address: If the PER-3 facility is
installed, then, during a program interruption, the
contents of the breaking-event-address register
are stored in locations 272-279. If the breaking-
event-address-recording facility is not installed,
this location remains unchanged.
Note that the dump almost certainly contains data from the wrong PSA,
and that there may have been program interruptions from other tasks,
so even if you're looking at the correct PSA you should rely on the
data there but should instead look at one of the fields to which z/OS
has copied the saved BEAR.
